The Financial Times, a major international business newspaper, the main competitor to the Wall Street Journal, has just published an article, highlighting the insignificance of the impact Obama’s National Climate Assessment has had, on American public opinion.
According to the FT,
“Americans have been receiving such warnings for a decade. None has managed to rouse the country from its seeming indifference.”....
“… the authors seem to have forgotten that weather is not the same thing as the climate.”.
“Former US ambassador to China Jon Huntsman wrote recently of having watched a debate at which “all the Republican candidates chuckled at a question on climate change – as if they had been asked about their belief in the Tooth Fairy””
The Wall street Journal summed it up this way:
Obama’s Climate Bomb
He’s flogging disaster scenarios to promote his political agenda.
May 8, 2014 7:25 p.m. ET
Supervising the Earth’s climate—or at least believing humanity can
achieve such miracles—may be the only political project grandiose enough
for President Obama. So it shouldn’t surprise that after reforming
health care and raising taxes, the White House is now getting the
global-warming band back together, though it is still merely playing the
old classics of unscientific panic.On Wednesday the White House released the quadrennial National Climate Assessment, an 829-page report."
